This does not affect any other series or aggregates in the MRETS dataset or the UK trade statistical bulletin. The series have now been corrected, we apologise for any inconvenience.

A small error in the trade in goods excluding oil and erratics import price indices occurred in the UK Trade: March 2018 publication tables and related time series dataset due to a processing error. The error impacted the trade in goods excluding oil and erratics import price index (series ELBA) for the period January 2018 to March 2018 in Table 3, the trade in goods excluding oil and erratics import price index growth rate in Table 4 and the trade in goods excluding oil and erratics import price indices for EU and non-EU (series SHCM and SHEB) in Table 6.

This had no impact on any other series or commentary in the UK trade: March 2018 publication.

The price series have now been corrected and ONS apologises for any inconvenience this may have caused.
